"Emory Law Students Take Supreme Court to Task Over Judicial Misconduct. A group of students at Emory University's law school is pushing the nation's highest court to address a contentious issue: how to hold judges accountable for their own wrongdoing. The student-led petition, which is seeking Supreme Court review, argues that the current system for policing judicial misconduct is inadequate and often shields judges from consequences for their actions. As the judiciary grapples with allegations of bias and impropriety, the Emory students' move is sparking debate over the need for greater transparency and accountability within the courts."


A student-led group at Emory Law School has asked the Supreme Court to weigh in on the judiciary's system for policing bad behavior within its own ranks.
